Chapter 2: The Date
Rebecca took the elastic out of her hair, and let her hair fall to her shoulders. It was Saturday and she had just finished preparing for her date. She was wearing a gold dress with a slit on the left leg, and gold shoes. Her doorbell rung and she looked at herself in the mirror one last time and then opened the door.
"Hello Darling." Jonathan said when she had opened the door.
"Jonathan, hello." Rebecca said. "Shall we go?"
"We shall." Jonathan said.
And with that, Rebecca and Jonathan linked arms and walked to his car. His car was a red car with a top that went down. It looked very new.
"That's a nice car." Rebecca said.
"Why thank you," Jonathan said, "Lets go then."
Jonathan opened the car door for Rebecca and she got in. Jonathan closed the door. Then he went over to his side of the car and got in. They drove to the restaurant, and Jonathan got out of the car and opened the car door for Rebecca. She politely thanked him and got out of the car.
They went into the restaurant arm in arm. The place was not very full so they were seated in a short time. When they sat down in their booth, the waiter gave them their menus. They looked at their menus, deciding what to order.
"This all looks very good…I'll get what you're having Jonathan." Rebecca said.
"Ok. Um… How about the steak and mushrooms?" Jonathan said.
"Fine with me," Rebecca said. "I'll have red wine for a drink."
"I'll have some red wine too." Jonathan said.
When the waiter left Rebecca said "You like red wine?"
"Yep. It's my favorite drink." Jonathan said.
"My favorite too!" Rebecca said.
The two talked amongst themselves until their drinks had come. Rebecca sipped her wine.
"So… this place is way too fancy for me," Rebecca said a while later, she was a little tipsy from drinking 4 glasses of wine, "Let's say we leave? Before the food comes?"
"Good idea, I was beginning to think that myself." Jonathan said, also tipsy, but from 6 glasses of wine.
The two people left the place without realizing they had to pay first, but no one noticed them. Rebecca and Jonathan got in the car and drove to his house. It was also Rick, Alex and Evie's house.
They parked the car in the driveway and got out. They walked arm-in-arm to the house. Jonathan unlocked the door and opened it for Rebecca. Jonathan gave her the tour of the place and while he was in the living room, he picked up a gold scepter with a star on the top made by the Ancient Egyptians.
"Now this," he said, "has saved my life and almost the entire world. And it's all mine!"
"Let me guess, the Scorpion king, mummies, and the Book of the Dead?" Rebecca asked.
"Why…yes how did you know?" Jonathan asked her.
"Evie." She replied simply.
"She told you the whole story? I can imagine she did." Jonathan said.
Suddenly downstairs there were sounds of guns and shouts.
The door to the living room slammed open and Rick and Evie and Alex ran in. Rick was reloading; Evie was with Alex holding the door closed.
All Evie said was "Oh my God……. He's back again…"
